Random Updates

Well, here we are, settling in to being home.

Things have gone amazingly well. I feel good and luckily, the baby hasn't really "woken up" yet, so we are able to get quite a bit of sleep. In fact, I've had to wake her up for nearly every feeding, even at night. (Yeah, I really hate waking a sleeping baby, especially at night...but, it needed to be done.)

Mini Me is starting to adjust. She's talking to me again, which is a nice thing. She is testing and lashing out for attention at times, but that was expected.

We took the baby for a check today. When she was discharged from the hospital on Thursday, she was down to 6 pounds, 12 ounces. Today, she weighed in at 6 pounds, 14 ounces!

Yay!!!!!

The pediatrician said she looked great, and that she has no concerns. We go back again on Tuesday.

Breastfeeding is going fairly well. There have been some ups and downs, but I think we are starting to get the hang of it. And, the fact that she is gaining weight already is a good sign.

Here is a video of my hungry little girl:
